TheoRockNazz Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Commissioned lockback folder I just completed: Antiqued finish S35VN blade with blued 80CrV2 spring, bronze frame/thumbstud, and patternwelded side panels. The side panels have little skulls in the pattern, something that took a looooong time to get to work. Let me know what yall think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daswulf Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Theo, it's an awesome knife but the skull doesn't pop. I had to look for it. No where near saying I could do better. It is there once you see it. I dont even have advise other than more contrast? More nickel alloys in the contrast? Dunno. Awesome work still tho.

Lou L Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Beautiful work! I’d love an estimate of the hours you have into that. Even discounting R&D on that skull pattern it must be high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John in Oly, WA Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Beautiful Theo! And 3D printed scales? Are they still called scales on a folder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheoRockNazz Posted March 21, 2019 Author Share Posted March 21, 2019 Thank you all! lol, yeah the skulls took forever, easily four times as many failures as successes. The scales are indeed 3D printed cast bronze - the process allowed me to pocket them a little from the inside to reduce weight (somewhat) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
